We were lucky to have found Ivy when we were searching for day care locations two years ago. They were flexible with our schedules and excellent for our kids. We were especially lucky to have Kim as their main teacher. She went above and beyond for all the kids there every day, and she really felt like family to us. We had to move on, but only due to logistical reasons and it was quite sad to go. If things change we would definitely look to go back to Ivy again. Thank you for taking such good care of our kids, and for being so good to us as well.

Long over due but can’t thank these people enough for everything they did for myself and my two little ones. We attended both locations at one point and felt at home at both locations. From the owners, to the staff, are all beautiful people. The owners Amy and Joshua, truly do treat their clients like family. My children, who at the time were 4 and 6, now 7 and 9, would tell you the same thing about this place and these people. They remember them and talk about them frequently. Would recommend these people, and either of their locations to anybody.

Went for tour today. The facility has a unlocked door and two open doors into director office and then into the center of the facility. Was there 5 minutes in lobby before baby room staff noticed is. I could have easily walked around the facility without being notice putting all kids in danger. I canceled my tour after ten minutes of seeing their lobby and baby room waiting for director. I understand you need to step away but the proper locking of doors needs to be taken.

Been with Ivy for two years now. I have an 8 month old and a 2 year old enrolled there. All good things to say.

The Ivy academy has been great for my daughter. She’s 10 months old and smiles every time I drop her off and sometimes cries when I pick her up. Given she can’t talk, I like to think that’s a good sign she enjoys it! The staff there is also great. They are easy to collaborate with and wonderful communicators! Shoutout to Ms. Kim, Ms. Jessica and Ms. Danielle. All three of these women have made transitioning my daughter to daycare a much easier experience then I could have ever requested. Three cheers to this daycare.

Ivy Academy is an extension of our family! Almost every morning I walk away with a smile at drop off knowing the people i'm leaving my child with during the day care for him as much as I do. I love the diversity and the center truly goes above and beyond for their families. Couldn't imagine a better place to leave my children!

Awesome new daycare!Wonderful staff!Appreciation post: Thank you to Ms Stephanie and Ms Amy for helping my son through a difficult mental health day today.They did not push his feelings under the rug but instead acknowledged the issue and talk with him through it. I am beyond grateful for the support they are giving my children. Times are hard and stressful for adults right now and the kids are feeling it too. Some kids cannot put into words exactly how they are feeling so tears just come or they act out in different ways. Thank you for being kind to my children.Ms Stephanie has gained the role of 8 to 10 elementary school teachers. I am so thankful for her helping my son with his school work and even chating with his school teacher to get clarification if needed. Beyond blessed that my children are in good hands.

My son is 6 months old and he gets excited to go in to daycare. We have enjoyed all the extra things they do for families as well. Picture days, Santa coming, family events. I drive past 9 other daycare centers to get to Ivy Academy but it is well worth it!

Leaving your child in the hands of someone else is one of the hardest things for me as a Mom, but I could not be happier to have found Amy and her Learning Center!!! My 6 month old baby boy has struggled with feeding issues since day one. This has caused a fussy baby, spit up and sometimes vomiting. I had him in a Kindercare that did not tolerate his issues at all. They would leave him on the floor to cry and he would scratch his head in frustration.After pulling him out of Kindercare with no other child care lined up, I called Amy to inquire about her center and she was so kind! She understood my situation and promised I would never experience anything like Kindercare with her. I trusted her so I took a tour and signed my son up.Since being with The Ivy Academy, my son has received amazing care! They have taken on the struggle of his feeding issue with me and help me daily to work through them. They don't "mom shame" me, they understand how hard it can be to struggle through situations like my own. Not only do they take care of my son, they do everything in their power to help me have a better day. They call to keep me updated on his day and suggest different things I could try to make my son more comfortable even at home.I could not be more grateful to have found them! Its also a great feeling when my son smiles every morning to see his teachers!!
